Banana Bread / Muffins

I've tried this a few times and finally have come up with one I like.

YIELD: 16 - 24 mini muffins


INGREDIENTS:

4 soupy bananas - Super Ripe*
1/3 cup canola oil
1/3 cup agave nectar
1 tbsp lemon juice
1 tbsp ground flax seed
1 tsp nutmeg
1 1/2 tsp fine sea salt
1 cup white flour
1/2 cup whole wheat flour
1/2cup cornmeal
i tsp baking powder
1tsp baking soda
handful of raisins**



DIRECTIONS:

Preheat oven to 350. Grease the muffin tin / loaf pan.

Mash the bananas in a small bowl. Add the oil, agave, lemon juice,flax seed and nutmeg and stir till well mixed

In a medium bowl mix the flours, cornmeal, baking soda, baking powder, salt and raisins together.

Add the banana mixture to the flour mixture and mix till just combined. Using a table spoon fill muffin tin till full. Bake for 20 minutes or until toothpick comes out clean. Bake for 40 minutes is making a loaf.


*I just peel and bag over ripe bananas and chuck them in the freezer. When they defrost the become a bit soupy.

** Totally optional.
